Make it Merry with Tiny Christmas Trees

I’ve made a really cute card to share with you today, but I want to start with a reminder that today is the last day to sign up for the next Super-Awesome Fun Time Card Kit. Emma Goddard and I are hosting an amazing, fun kit with our designs with the Sending Cheer Bundle – and I hope you’ll join us.

Speaking of Sending Cheer – I’ve made a bright, cheery card to share with you today, and I know you’d be happy to send this. My card features a single die from the September-December 2023 Mini Catalog (that you’ll want if you don’t have), a fun color combination and a sentiment to match. Here’s my card:

The Tiny Christmas Trees Die measures 3-3/4″ x 5-1/8″ and can be used to crop out 46 little Christmas trees or a panel with tree-shaped openings. What fun! Here’s a look at this fun single die:

Tiny Christmas Trees Die, Stampin Up! 162114I cropped my trees from a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock and added a 1-5/8″ strip of Melon Mambo right over the top. I cropped the trees from a thicker, longer piece and then trimmed it to the size I wanted. So easy – and such a fun look. Here’s a closer look:

I layered my panel of cropped out Christmas trees over a slightly larger panel of small gingham from the Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. The Lemon Lime Twist pattern shines through the trees. Here’s a look at the patterns and colors in the Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper:

I stamped the sentiment with Melon Mambo ink and cropped it with my 2″ Circle Punch. I layered that over a 2-3/8″ circle of Vellum Cardstock to allow the trees to peek through.

Here’s a look at the Wishes All Around Bundle:

If you like this mix of Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green and Melon Mambo as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
